This week model-based design and software defined vehicles take center stage! My guest Jim Tung (MathWorks fellow) and I discuss the trends driving a push toward software defined vehicles, the benefits of model-based design for SDV development and the tools that engineers should consider for virtualizing vehicle behavior. Also this week, I investigate a new enhanced event camera developed by a team of researchers at the University of Maryland … Read More → "Model-Based Design and the Rise of Software Defined Vehicle Development"
I’ve said it before, and I’ll doubtless say it again; I’m a simple man. As I’ve also said before, this isn’t a pause for you to agree with me enthusiastically because I haven’t completed my train of thought. What I was trying to say was that I’m a simple man who likes a simple story.
I … Read More → "Customized Analog for the Connected World"
I’ve just heard something that left me flabbergasted. Seriously. I cannot recall the last time my flabber was quite this gasted. All I can say is that if you dare to read this column, your own flabber is in danger of joining mine, so this might be a good time for you to don clothing appropriate to the occasion.
Let’s start … Read More → "Want to Run LLMs on the Edge?"
I was just cogitating and ruminating on the futuristic technologies to which I was exposed when “Star Trek: The Original Series (TOS)” first graced our television screens in 1966. Things like the flip-open communicators, which predated the launch of the world’s first flip phone by 30 years.
Also, there was artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) of a form. However, … Read More → "Open-Source AutoML for Edge AI/ML Development"
In retrospect, it’s been a funny old day with respect to retro displays and computers, starting with Numitron tubes (which use seven incandescent filaments arranged to form a seven-segment display) and ending with an 8-bit computer implemented using 1950s thermionic valves (vacuum tubes).
Now, I want you to be honest with me… am I alone in loving the technologies of yesteryear? For … Read More → "Awesome Retro Displays and Computers"
Are you powered up for today’s Fish Fry? I certainly hope so! My podcast guest Frank Heidemann (National Instruments) and I are diving into the world of power semiconductors. We chat about recent trends in the power semiconductor market, the benefits of wide bandgap power semiconductors and the role that power semiconductors will play for the future of electric vehicles. Also this week, I check out a new … Read More → "All Powered Up: EVs, Wide Bandgap, and Saving the World with Power Semiconductors"
